My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult




My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult

Lexile: 840

Rating (out of 5 stars): 4.5 stars

Book Review by Mrs. Burnham: My Sister's Keeper, as with most books by Jodi Picoult, is a story that is based around a moral dilemma. It's the story of a family torn by medical decisions because one sister was conceived in the hope that her cord blood could save the life of her very sick older sister. Younger sister, Anna, finally is tired of being used as a medical saving grace for her sister, and sues her own parents for medical emancipation, a reprieve from saving her sister's life.
I loved this book because the narrator changes from chapter to chapter, so the reader gets a good sense of what each character is feeling and experiencing!
